Hey all,
It's been a very long time since I have posted a new video. For the past two years I have been in pre-production on a brand new feature titled, Across the Ocean. I have been making this narrative film with Uma Kumarapuram, a filmmaker in India. This is a dream project for me, a feature length movie we wrote together, where I will film half in Los Angeles, and Uma will film the other half in India. The footage we each shoot, will then be edited together to make one united film. Check out the video, please donate, and enjoy!

National Geographic (magazine)

National Geographic, formerly The National Geographic Magazine, is the official magazine of the National Geographic Society. It has been published continuously since its first issue in 1888, nine months after the Society itself was founded. It primarily contains articles about geography, history, and world culture. The magazine is known for its thick square-bound glossy format with a yellow rectangular border and its extensive use of dramatic photographs.

The magazine is published monthly, and additional map supplements are also included with subscriptions. It is available in a traditional printed edition and through an interactive online edition. On occasion, special editions of the magazine are issued.

As of 2015, the magazine is circulated worldwide in nearly 40 local-language editions and had a global circulation of 6.8 million per month. Its U.S. circulation is around 3.5 million per month.

Short film

A short film is any film not long enough to be considered a feature film. Although no consensus exists as to where that boundary is drawn, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences defines a short film as "an original motion picture that has a running time of 40 minutes or less, including all credits". The term featurette originally applied to a film longer than a short subject, but shorter than a standard feature film.

The increasingly rare term short subject means approximately the same thing. An industry term, it carries more of an assumption that the film is shown as part of a presentation along with a feature film. Short is an abbreviation for either term. Short films are often screened at local, national, or international film festivals and made by independent filmmakers for non profit, either with a low budget or no budget at all. They are usually funded by film grants, non profit organizations, sponsor, or personal funds. Short films are generally used by filmmakers to gain experience and/or prove their talent in order to gain funding for future films from private investors, entertainment companies, or film studios.

Victory at Sea

Victory at Sea is a documentarytelevision series about warfare in general during World War II, and naval warfare in particular, as well as the use of industry in warfare. It was originally broadcast by NBC in the USA in 1952–1953. It was condensed into a film in 1954. Excerpts from the music soundtrack, by Richard Rodgers and Robert Russell Bennett, were re-recorded and sold as record albums. The original TV broadcasts comprised 26 half-hour segments—Sunday afternoons at 3pm (EST) in most markets—starting on October 26, 1952 and ending on May 3, 1953. The series, which won an Emmy award in 1954 as "best public affairs program", played an important part in establishing historic "compilation" documentaries as a viable television genre.

History

The project was conceived by Henry Salomon, who, while a U.S. Navy Lieutenant Commander during World War II, was a research assistant to historian Samuel Eliot Morison. Morison was then writing the 15-volume History of United States Naval Operations in World War II. During this period, Salomon learned of the large amounts of film that the warring navies had compiled. Salomon left the Navy in 1948 and eventually discussed his idea of a documentary series with one of his Harvard classmates, Robert Sarnoff, a rising executive at NBC television and the son of David Sarnoff, the chairman of RCA (then the owner of NBC).

Victory at Sea (game)

Victory at Sea (abbreviated to VAS) is a set of World War IInaval wargaming rules published by Mongoose Publishing. They were a development of Mongoose's Babylon 5: A Call to Arms SF starship combat rules written by Matthew Sprange, with assistance from David Manley, Richard Bax, Erik Nicely and Agis Neugebauer, having been initially released through a series of articles in the Mongoose house journal Signs and Portents. A supplement to the rules entitled Victory At Sea - Order of Battle, including expanded ship lists and new rules, was written during 2007. It was rushed into print, unreviewed and with a large number of errors left uncorrected - an unofficial 28 page errata was available several days after its release was announced. The rules have spawned a number of unofficial period and scale variants including ironclad actions and WW2 destroyer actions. An official World War I variant entitled Victory at Sea - Age of Dreadnoughts, written by David Manley was published in 2008.

Victory at Sea (band)

Victory at Sea was an America Indie Rock band formed in 1996, from members of bands the Swirlies and Spore, in the Boston, Massachusetts region. It consisted of vocalist/guitarist Mona Elliott, bassist Mel Lederman and drummer Christina Files (later to be replaced by a succession of drummers Fin Moore, Carl Eklof, and Dave Norton). Their most recent albums Memories Fade and All Your Things Are Gone were released by the independent record labelGern Blandsten Records in 2004 and 2006 respectively. On September 6, 2007 the band announced on their Myspace page that they had disbanded, though they stated that all of the members have new musical endeavors. Mona Elliott later played with former Metal Hearts member Anar Badalov as Travels, now disbanded.

Despite the vastness of Earth’s oceans, plastic pollutants are turning up everywhere, from the deep sea to the Arctic ice pack. Shockingly, researchers estimate that by 2050 the oceans will contain more plastic—by weight—than fish. As these degrading plastics leach potentially toxic chemicals into the seas, they pose a serious threat to ocean animals, as well as to humans.
To combat this frightening prognosis, Hawaii—among other places—is contemplating a ban on the sale and distribution of single-use polystyrene. In this short film from filmmaker Chris Hanson, 17 Hawaiian students study the impact of plastic pollution on their local beaches in order to help create a more sustainable future for the world’s oceans.

Despite the vastness of Earth’s oceans, plastic pollutants are turning up everywhere, from the deep sea to the Arctic ice pack. Shockingly, researchers estimate that by 2050 the oceans will contain more plastic—by weight—than fish. As these degrading plastics leach potentially toxic chemicals into the seas, they pose a serious threat to ocean animals, as well as to humans.
To combat this frightening prognosis, Hawaii—among other places—is contemplating a ban on the sale and distribution of single-use polystyrene. In this short film from filmmaker Chris Hanson, 17 Hawaiian students study the impact of plastic pollution on their local beaches in order to help create a more sustainable future for the world’s oceans.

Fact: 500 million plastic straws are used every day in the United States alone. If we don’t change our habits now, by 2050 there will be more plastic than fish in our ocean. Adrian Grenier ("Entourage") and his LonelyWhaleFoundation are working to combat plastic pollution. Throughout the month of September, Seattle residents are encouraged to join Adrian Grenier’s entourage as his nonprofit organization Lonely Whale Foundation launches Strawless in Seattle throughout the city. The month-long series is part of Lonely Whale Foundation’s Strawless Ocean global initiative, which aims to remove 500 million plastic straws from the U.S. waste stream in 2017.

Plastic Ocean

United Nations - Plastic - both a wonderful invention and a scourge on our planet. Over 300 million tons will be produced this year.
Most is never recycled and remains on our land and in our seas for ever. Our story shows the damage to all creatures who depend on the ocean for their food – from birds… to us.
21st Century: Episode #126
This is an adaptation from the original documentary “A Plastic Ocean” by the Plastic OceansFoundationScript: http://www.un.org/webcast/pdfs/21stcshow126plasticocean.pdf

Across the Ocean - Campaign

Hey all,
It's been a very long time since I have posted a new video. For the past two years I have been in pre-production on a brand new feature titled, Across the Ocean. I have been making this narrative film with Uma Kumarapuram, a filmmaker in India. This is a dream project for me, a feature length movie we wrote together, where I will film half in Los Angeles, and Uma will film the other half in India. The footage we each shoot, will then be edited together to make one united film. Check out the video, please donate, and enjoy!
